A Tale of Two Lymphomas: Case discussions emphasizing the latest in diagnosis, classification and treatment of Canine Lymphoma

چکیده
Hematopoietic neoplasia is a large and diverse group of clonal proliferative disorders of hematopoietic cells. The most common hematopoietic malignancy in dogs is lymphoma. While multicentric, large cell lymphoma represents the most common clinical presentation, lymphoma can affect a wide range of organ systems, causing a variety of clinical signs. The multicentric lymphoma that we see in our canine patients is most similar to Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma in humans, a disease that is further categorized into several subtypes based on the World Health Organization (WHO) classification system (see below). Classification/subtyping of lymphoma can provide valuable prognostic information and help direct treatment.
